We are proud to release Bindows 4.0 today.
The release comes after the longest and most thorough beta program (three beta rounds) in the Bindows history.

Bindows 4.0 includes four major additions:

* A completely redesigned menu system - best in the market
* Initial support for new browsers (IE8, FF3, WebKit 525+, Chrome, upcoming Safari version)
* Exciting new looks - 6 new themes and a powerful theme engine (so you can create your own)
* Enable development of complete Ajax applications without writing a single line of JavaScript!

For quite some time now, I’ve been working on improving the looks of Bindows. I’ve lost count of how many theme variations I created in order to find the right one(s). Now that it’s done I’m probably not touching Photoshop nor CSS for a while…

Over a year ago we set out to do some major improvements to Bindows and look and feel was one of the core things. Another one was the Actions stuff that I wrote a bit about in an earlier post.

In the betas of the 4.0, we added a whole series of themes that one can use with Bindows and now, in the final release, we complete the journey and replace the default look with a, IMHO, really cool one. It doesnt really have a lot of fancy stuff but just the right balance between cool and useful.
